Why Did I Read? I love Miranda Kenneally’s Hundred Oaks series so of course, I needed to continue the series! My Thoughts: I so enjoyed this one!! I loved Maya and her strong personality.

Juliet’s mother died and she is coping by writing her letters at her grave but who knew someone would find […]

I think fandom is such an amazing entity and while it can […]
